You Get What You Get

So, here's what you get when you spend 20 minutes upstairs cleaning Nora's room. Do you think he was going to set it on fire?

Memory Monday

So there's this story Sharon tells of a day long ago when Nora silently stood in front of her at one of Scott's and Alek's baseball games. And still without words, Nora TOOK Sharon's oreo cookie right out of her hands and ATE it while silently daring her with a look to do something about it. I just found this photo. Odds are it was the same day.

And.....

Ten points to the first comment correctly identifying Alek's new obsession....... come on. It should be obvious.... Lincoln is so last year......

And then there were none....

Walter is officially a preschooler. He started last Wednesday. He was nothing but ecstatic. The day before, we'd had Meet the Teacher. He played for the hour, and when I said, "Okay, time to go!" He nonchalantly said, "BYE!" Not a clingy kid really. Nope.

Walt, what did you do at school today? "Potato." What? "Potato." WHAT???? "POTATO!"

And then Alek said, "Mom, there's playdoh on his shirt." DOH!
